Hayden, Inc. 459 Oil Cooler Review

Hayden, Inc. 459 Oil Cooler

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This oil cooler has been in my car for several months now and is working great. It will increase your oil capacity by about a quart though. When the engine is hot and you put your hand up against it it feels quite warm so that must mean it's doing its job.
PROS:
1)relatively cheap
2)easy installation
3)works good
CONS:
1)did not come with mounting spacers, had to get nylon spacers at osh to hold the cooling unit away from the grill. then use zipties to mount it behind the grill.
2)construction of the cooling unit seems non-robust, but should not be a problem since it should be mounted clear of debris and rocks

Mahle Oil Filter Review

Mahle Oil Filter

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I use these on my 2004 Audi A4 1.8T 6-speed. They are larger and less expensive than the factory filters, and Amazon usually gets them here in a day or two. I like the idea of having more oil volume and I don't trust most of the aftermarket filters.

Ratio-Rite Measuring Cup Review

Ratio-Rite Measuring Cup

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the second ratio rite I have bought. The first lasted 15 years and handles all my fluid measuring needs when working on a motorcycle or small gas engine.
Works well for fork oil, gear oil, engine oil. Have not used for brake oil or coolant but guess it would work well for them.
If you need to measure and pour fluids in the range of 50 cc to 500 cc (2 - 18 oz) (1/8 to 1 pint) or pre mix oil into gas for 1 Gal 1.5 Gal 2.0 Gal 2.5 Gal for various ratios, THIS PRODUCT GETS WHAT YOU NEED.
Just make sure you can see the small raised letters molded into the plastic cup.

Turbo Oil Drain Line Kit T3 T4 T3t4 T70 T66 Gt30 Gt35 T76 T72 Gt45 Gt4292 Review

Turbo Oil Drain Line Kit T3 T4 T3t4 T70 T66 Gt30 Gt35 T76 T72 Gt45 Gt4292

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This kit won't win any prizes for beautiful appearance because it's just a little rough around the edges but once installed under the turbo where no one can see it, it does exactly what it was advertised to do. It loses a star because it arrived with an aluminum fitting to attach to my oil pan which is pressed steel so I cannot weld it on. This kit should include a steel and aluminum oil pan fitting.

Arnold Corp 0125538 Oil And Gas Pre-Mix (Pack of 6) Review

Arnold Corp 0125538 Oil And Gas Pre-Mix (Pack of 6)

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered this and only received 1 can, not a pack of six cans. I contacted the 3rd party seller and they said that it was Amazon who actually is at fault. The part number ends with -1 which to the 3rd party seller, means one can, not 6. Amazon is nice enough to get my money back for the mistaken description and trouble. The product is awesome but for 9 bucks after shipping, it's not a good deal. I was hoping to get 6 for 9 bucks but that is obviously too good to be true. Sears has the craftsman version for 5 bucks in the stores. It's the best deal because of no shipping costs.

Sunpro CP7956 Electrical Water Temperature Gauge - Black Dial Review

Sunpro CP7956 Electrical Water Temperature Gauge - Black Dial

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pure "Made in China" junk. Don't even waste your time with this one or the voltmeter. Gauge numbers are off-center with the base (where it says sunpro) which looks horrible. Gauge is very inaccurate as tested against mechanical. Gauge indicator moves up with increased rpm, even though properly grounded. Additional fitting required had bad threads, so I had to buy a new one. Sending unit electrical connector popped off. SUNPRO IS PURE JUNK!

This electrical water temperature gauge features a black 2-in dial face with classically designed panels and bezels. It shows a range of 100 to 280-degrees F.

Red Line Oil Synthetic D4 Automatic Transmission Fluid Review

Red Line Oil Synthetic D4 Automatic Transmission Fluid

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I take off one star for the price. I just bought this red line atf because it has a good reputation for power steering fluid among BMW owners. BMW uses ATF fluid for power steering. Seems to work pretty good although I don't notice a difference in how the steering feels compared to much cheaper stuff.

Mityvac (MITMV7400) 7.3 Liter Fluid Evacuator Review

Mityvac (MITMV7400) 7.3 Liter Fluid Evacuator

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Now I don't have to elevate the front of my car, slide a drain pan under it, and scuff my knuckles breaking the drain plug loose anymore. Since my Hyundai Sonata has the oil filter topside, I don't have to lay on my hurtin' back for any reason when I change the oil now!
The first use, I wanted to see if it really emptied out the oil pan completely. So I popped the plug anyway after vacuuming out the oil with the Mityvac and not a drop came out of the drain hole! Very well pleased with its operation and would recommend this unit for anyone with fluid evacuation needs.

K&N KN-204C Powersports High Performance Oil Filter Review

KandN KN-204C Powersports High Performance Oil Filter

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Black or Chrome, it didn't matter to me. On my bike it's hidden under a fairing anyway. I bought this for the nut welded on the end of the filter. This is such a simple solution especially if you have a bike with fairings that are a pita to remove. Easy on and off using the nut and a socket extention.
If you've ever had to punch a screwdriver through an oil filter and tap it loose with a hammer (potentially endangering knuckles or fairings) this is the answer to your problems.
Seems to perform fine. I haven't discovered any issues with the filter performance.
This is the only filter I'll ever buy again.
